Most people seem normal, till you get to know them.

would these work?
they come to suit long or short axle, irs or swing, and available with blank rotors for custom drilling.
Not sure about compatibility with redux boxes.

are you trying to keep it orginal or just keep the the redux boxs? I have heard of ppl putting the redux boxes at the gb end of the axle rather than the hub end?
I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!

How would that work?Want to use all the Country Bug gear under a Beetle for offroad work.Have got a twin port 1600 I did up a few years back to put in it and would like to use the set of Porsche Fuchs I have with some off road tyres.Have 15x6 for the front and 15x8 for the rear. I have got all the gear from the back of an EL Falcon and bought some new undrilled rotors so figured it would be cheaper and easier to convert to discs to get 5x130 stud pattern.My CB trans is missing 1 brake drum,so when I get some spare shed space I will get the trans. onto the engine stand and have a play.Was hoping some one may have already had a shot at it.

Yes I will "keep you in the loop" (just using some used car salesman lingo) Run around this morning trying to find wheel nuts that have the Porsche taper where they contact the wheel but will screw onto a Ford wheel stud(1/2inch by 20 TPI) didn't have much joy.May have to get some made.
